The story

What Is Diamond Demon About?

The premise of Diamond Demon without spoilers.

Minor‑league pitcher and trick‑artist Johnny Price demonstrates extraordinary feats in this Pete Smith short. He can launch two, sometimes three, baseballs at once to separate targets, with catchers positioned side‑by‑side, at different heights, or even on the mound and second base while he throws from the catcher’s spot. He also performs the throws while hanging upside‑down.
